Lauren Betts dominates in UCLA’s blowout win over Pepperdine

UCLA moves to 3-0!

The UCLA Bruins women’s basketball team played a day game on Tuesday against Pepperdine. And, it was all UCLA from beginning to end as the Bruins got the win, 91-54.

Betts led the way with 17 points and 12 rebounds and four UCLA players recorded double figures in the victory.

UCLA started the year by defeating Louisville in France and then returned home and beat Colgate on Sunday. 

Now, UCLA goes to 3-0, and Kiki Rice and Charlisse Leger-Walker have both not played this season as of yet.

UCLA scored 31 points in the first quarter and went into halftime with a commanding 50-25 lead.

The big win allowed Cori Close to dip into the depth and get the reserves some playing time. A total of nine Bruins saw the floor in the win.

UCLA has a few days off before a Sunday night game against Arkansas and then a showdown against South Carolina in Pauley Pavilion on November 24.
